Scavenge Skirmish Survive figures
« on: 24 January 2014, 04:27:15 PM »
I am dipping a toe into painting again after a good couple of years off, and while having a mooch around some of the forums for inspiration found the  Scavenge Skirmish Survive range from Mojo. A quick order and a few hours later the first five miniatures are done. Well almost done as the little girl turned out to be a bit on the ugly, side so I'm going to re-do her face when I get the chance.
Poor pictures I'm afraid, my photo skills need a brush up as well it seems..  :(

Thanks guys for the kind words. Yes, the bunny bag is cute  :D cant take credit for the idea though, it was just a quick and easier take on the Hello Kitty bag someone else did. I have another 6/7 can't remember... figures to do, but I can see me painting more in the future.... ;)

Thank you all, especially as you chaps are providing most of my inspiration  ;)


Quick question, have any of you used the SA80's or cross/compound bows from the Wargames Factory Zombie survivors sets in any conversions of these figures? I kind of want to try either adding the things to the Mojo figures, or winterizing the WF figures for SSS, any thoughts?

I have just added some new pictures of the next few figures, my photography skills are very much in need of a refresh but hopefully you get the idea.  :)








Humm, not sure why they are coming out squashed, but have a look here for the originals...

They are all very nicely done. The colours suit them well. I love the little kids backpack adds a nice little bright touch.

Hi Snowdog, I'm just fiddling with your photo settings to see if I can work out the problem with your images, so don't be troubled that it will read as edited by me  :)

Edit: Does that look better to you (you might need to reopen the browser)?

Basically the forum has an image sizing auto function and I suspect that you copied the img coding from one to the next, merely changing the file name.  Anyways, I merely edited out the height attribute in the image code and then saved the post, so that the height was auto reset in proportion to the relevant image.

I've added a M16/AR15 to my cop, and I put a WGF pistol in not-Ellie's right hand, although she's a LA mini.  But the WGF stuff works well with SSS stuff.

Ah thank you, I have no idea what you just said though  :?  ;)
Anyway, don't you have figures and stuff to do? ;) I am going to have to take some better pictures soon so I'll try just loading them without trying to be clever next time....

Thanks Too Bo, I will have to invest in a pack then, I can't think of anyone else who has modern bows and crossbows off the top of my head.  :)
